Customer Index Super party for Super Bowl The Coshocton County Senior Center threw a super party for the Super Bowl on Friday, Feb. 4 at 11 a.m. There seemed to be a friendly rivalry between the kitchen staff and other staff members on their favorite team. While there were Steelers jerseys hanging on the walls, the kitchen staff had brought out cans of cheese for the “Cheese heads”, the Green Bay Packers and also made a cake with a Green Bay Packers theme. The kitchen staff also had cupcakes for everyone decorated to look like a football. Everyone who attended received a prediction sheet and made their official predictions for

They also played a football trivia game and all participants who received a perfect score had their names drawn for the ultimate winner. Preston Palmer’s name was drawn and he received the “game ball”, which was a small football signed by all the staff members at the Senior Center. Other participants who received a perfect score were Grace Pope, Cliff Hill, and Larry Wills. The Senior Center’s next big event will be the Valentine’s Day party on Monday, Feb. 14. There will be special decorations and Jamie Shamel will be there to sing classic love songs from the 40s and 50s.

The local Dollars For Scholars has kicked off its campaign to once more raise funds to assist deserving youth in our community with financial aid for higher education. To date, this volunteer operated scholarship foundation has distributed more than $1,535,000 to over 2,750 students seeking to continue their education. The Endowment Fund is a large contributor to this success. The fund was established in 1980 and provides a way to memorialize friends or relatives. Unfortunately, this fund is beginning to need additional monies to be able to continue to serve the youth of Coshocton County as generously. Anyone wanting more information on establishing such a memorial through the Endowment Fund should contact Dick Baker or Moe Conrad at Ohio Heritage Bank. In addition, yearly sponsors are very much needed. To be a yearly sponsor and have an award given in your name requires a $300 or more contribution. These contributors can stipulate some requirements of a qualified applicant such as a student in a particular school, a specified youth group such as 4-H, sports affiliation, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, FFA, Student Council to name a few examples. Sponsors are very much

Mizer named United Way director On Jan. 10, Lyn Mizer took over the position of director of the Coshocton County United Way when Suzanne Clark, who had served the past year, moved on to another job. One of Mizer’s goals in her new position is to make more connections with different businesses and professions in town and make sure they understand what the United Way does for their community. She stressed that even if businesses in the community give a little, it all adds up to a large sum that is used to strengthen and help the community grow. “It’s my view of Coshocton that I really want to see change and grow,” Mizer said, “I want to see businesses come in and the businesses that are here grow even more and thrive better. The United Way can only exist as long as people continue to support and give their money.” According to Mizer, the United Way is doing remarkably well and people in the community are giving what they had originally pledged, which is incredible in the current economy. She said she would like to see the United Way grow over the coming years as needs in the community continue to grow as well. The United Way is a great non-profit agency to give to in order to help out several different programs in the community, whether it be human needs such as food, shelter, and clothing, supporting senior citizen activities, or developing

youth through education by beth scott programs. Once the money is collected, the United Way distributes it to their partner agencies and the agency uses it as they wish to expand and better their program. Mizer has done a lot of volunteering over the last 14 years including Hospice and serving on the Habitat for Humanity board. “What I’ve learned is the human condition is universal,” she said, “That we all are subject to the exact same human conditions and understanding that knowing what people’s needs are, you can better meet them. I try very hard to make sure I understand what people need, whether it’s a business or someone receiving a service. I hope I have the ability to decipher what it is that’s the real need.” The next big event for The United Way will be their annual meeting. Everyone who has donated to The United Way in the past is welcome to come. The meeting will be Thursday, Feb. 24 at 7 a.m. at the Presbyterian Church. Cost is $10. Please R.S.V.P. with money by Monday, Feb. 14. To learn more about the United Way, visit their Web site at www.coshoctonunitedway. org.

Beacon Bicentennial Bits #11 Major William Robinson Major William Robinson, a resident of West Virginia, was captured and adopted by the Natives in what is now Dresden. While there, Robinson was almost burned at the stake three times, although his captor rose and urged his brothers not to burn him. Eventually, Robinson lived for four months with his adopted family. He later left for his home and settled in Coshocton County where he died in 1815. This “Beacon Bicentennial Bit” was reprinted with permission and taken from the Coshocton County Sesquicentennial book compiled by the Coshocton County Historical Committee and printed by Shaw-Barton in 1961.

February 9th, 1951 Twenty-two-year-old Vonnie McCall received the opportunity of a lifetime when she was asked to audition for “The Wings Over Jordan Negro Choir”. Vonnie, who once made the comment that she would rather sing than eat, sang for the choir organizer and the conductor. Both agreed they had found their new singing star. Vonnie left her home in Coshocton two days later to sing alto in the choir and joined them in Moundsville, WV. She was a 1947 graduate of Coshocton High School and for the past year, had been the choir director for St. Andrews church choir. She had also sung in her high school choir for three years.

1961

February 10th, 1961 James E. Bell, a senior at Coshocton High School, had been named a finalist in the 1960-61 National Merit Scholarship program and had been awarded a Certificate of Merit. Bell attained his finalist status by completing two tests with distinguished performance. Only six-tenths of one percent of high school seniors across the nation received the award. The Merit Scholars were to be announced in April and were considered de crème de la crème of the finalists. Bell commented that being named a semi-finalist was an honor and it was an even greater honor to be named a finalist. He hoped to be selected to receive the highest honor, The Merit Scholars, in April.

1971

February 11th, 1971 When Archie Derr of Plainfield was small, he had trouble with his knees and had to walk using two canes. As an older man, Derr walked tall using a cane, but only for show. Derr had 30 different kinds and shapes of canes in his collection and used one every day. All came from the wooded areas around Plainfield. Derr’s favorite cane was a white ash 50-year-old cane he used to play hockey when he was a boy. However, Derr’s favorite thing to do with his cane collection was to give them away to people who really needed them. Although he was retired, Derr still enjoyed making furniture in his basement.

From 56 to 0. That was the temperature drop in one day in Coshocton County. Add to that icy roads due to rain the previous day and serious snow. The sudden drop in temperature hindered the snow removal due to county vehicle breakdowns. Also, salt and sand could not be administered on the roads due to the cold, as salt is not effective unless it is at least 18 degrees. After the weather warmed, the crews were out in full force and all county roads were open, although County Engineer Jim Gute cautioned drivers to be careful. Over 350 tons of salt and sand had been applied to roadways.

remains closed. Discard refrigerated perishable food such as meat, poultry, fish, soft cheeses, milk, eggs, leftovers, and deli items after 4 hours without power. Food may be safely refrozen if it still contains ice crystals or is at 40 °F or below when checked with a food thermometer. Never taste a food to determine its safety! Obtain dry or block ice to keep your refrigerator and freezer as cold as possible in situations where the power could be out for a prolonged period of time. Fifty pounds of dry ice should hold an 18-cubic-foot full freezer for 2 days. If the power has been out for several days, check the temperature of the freezer with an appliance thermometer. If the appliance thermometer reads 40 °F or below, the food is safe to refreeze. If a thermometer has not been kept in the freezer, check each package of food to determine its safety. If the food still contains ice crystals, the food is safe. Never place perishable food out in the snow. Outside temperatures can vary and food can be exposed to unsanitary conditions and animals. Instead, make ice. Fill buckets, empty milk containers, or cans with water and leave them outside to freeze. Use this ice to help keep food cold in the freezer, refrigerator, or coolers. For a complete chart of when to keep and when to throw out specific refrigerated and frozen foods, go to: www.fsis.usda.gov/Fact_Sheets/ Keeping_Food_Safe_During_an_Emergency/ index.asp.

Losing power from a snow or ice storm could jeopardize the safety of your food. Knowing how to determine if your food is safe, and the steps to take to help keep it safe, can help minimize food loss and reduce the risk of food borne illness. Ohio Department of Agriculture experts urge all Ohioans to use the following information provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service to help keep their families safe during snow and ice storms. Keep items on hand that do not require refrigeration and can be eaten cold or heated on an outdoor grill. Shelf-stable food, boxed or canned milk, water, and canned goods should be part of a planned emergency food supply. Make sure you have ready-to-use baby formula for infants and pet food. Remember to use these items and replace them from time to time. Be sure to keep a hand-held can opener for an emergency. Keep an appliance thermometer in the refrigerator and freezer. An appliance thermometer indicates the temperature in the refrigerator and freezer. In the case of a power outage, it can help determine the safety of the food. Make sure the freezer is at 0 °F or below and the refrigerator is at 40 °F or below. Freeze containers of water ahead of time for ice to help keep food cold in the freezer, refrigerator, or coolers after the power is out. Freeze gel packs for use in coolers. Freeze refrigerated items such as leftovers, milk and fresh meat and poultry that you may not need immediately. This helps keep them at a safe temperature longer. Plan ahead and know where dry ice and block ice can be purchased. Have coolers on hand to keep refrigerated food cold if the power will be out for more than 4 hours. Group food together in the freezer. This helps the food stay cold longer. Keep the refrigerator and freezer doors closed as much as possible to maintain the cold temperature. The refrigerator will keep food safe for about 4 hours if it is unopened. A full freezer will hold the temperature for approximately 48 hours (24 hours if it is half full) and the door

Rep. Balderson votes in support of Economic Development Effort: JobsOhio passes from Ohio House; advances to Ohio Senate COLUMBUS—State Representative Troy Balderson (R-Adamsville) today announced that Am. Sub. House Bill 1, which creates a non-profit economic development organization called JobsOhio, passed from the Ohio House of Representatives by a vote of 59-37. Its passage marks a crucial step toward fostering a more responsive business climate in the state of Ohio. “This bill will help businesses in Ohio begin to thrive again,” Balderson said. “It only makes sense to have business-savvy Ohioans, not

bureaucrats, help spur economic development in this state.” Am. Sub. House Bill 1 authorizes the creation of the nine-member board, with the governor as chairman and eight business leaders who understand the private sector. Six members must be Ohio residents, leaving room for two members with a national business perspective. The legislation also calls for a six-month review of the Ohio Department of Development (ODOD), which is a $1.2 billion state entity with

approximately 400 employees, only about 15% of whom directly assist job creation. According to the bill, the director of ODOD is obligated to evaluate all duties within the department and submit recommendations to improve the department’s efficiency to the General Assembly. Am. Sub. House Bill 1 now moves to the Ohio Senate, where it will undergo further consideration and debate.

Beacon Bicentennial Bits # 12: The Newcomer Mary Harris was a white woman captive who became the wife of Chief Eagle Feather, whose tribe lived in Coshocton County near the Walhonding River. Mary settled in to her new lifestyle very well and supposedly loved her husband. One day, Mary became jealous when her husband brought home a new white woman captive as his wife. It is said that Mary Harris killed her husband and blamed it on the newcomer. The newcomer fled and was found near the village of Newcomerstown, which is named after her. The new wife was returned to the village, but escaped once more, fleeing onto a high rock and jumping into the Walhonding River. The rock is now called “White Woman’s Rock” and bears a marker placed there in 1960 by the Coshocton Historial Society. Legend says that each night, a white light appears to “jump” from the rock and is swallowed up in the Walhonding River.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture announced that a referendum on the Sorghum Promotion, Research and Information Order began on Feb. 1, and continues through Feb. 28. The Sorghum Checkoff Program is a national, coordinated, self-help marketing program designed to strengthen the position of sorghum in the marketplace, maintain and expand existing domestic and foreign markets and uses for sorghum, and develop new markets and uses for sorghum. The mandatory program is funded at the rate of 0.6 percent of the net market value on grain sorghum and 0.35 percent of the net market value of sorghum forage. For the program to continue, a simple majority of those voting must support the continuation of the program. Any eligible person engaged in the production and sale of sorghum or importation of sorghum from July 1, 2008, to Dec. 31, 2010, is eligible to participate. Individuals are required to provide documentation such as a sales receipt or remittance form at the time a ballot is cast that shows they were engaged in the production and sale of sorghum or importation of sorghum. USDA will conduct the referendum at local Farm Service Agency (FSA) offices for producers. Ballots may be obtained in person, by mail or facsimile at county FSA offices. They can also be obtained via the Internet at http://

Jordon Mullett, RV FFA President, remarked, “This event is good for the industry. Seeing some younger people here tonight is good, knowing that people are still going to raise corn. The FFA helps put this event on just to get more involved in the community. Today’s farmers put a lot of hard work into raising corn and they are doing well at it as we’ve seen tonight. It’s amazing to see how many bushels our local farmers get out of an acre.” Lance Weaver, representing Seed Consultants, Inc., commented, “It’s a nice turnout tonight - I’m really glad to see these

guys under thirty here. They are a vast majority of the crowd that’s here tonight so we have some new folks coming into agriculture. I’m really glad to see that. Corn is a big part of our community – our largest industry in the state of Ohio is agriculture - and in this county along with major swine production corn is the number two crop, bringing in millions of dollars per year just in this county. It’s a very important part of our economy. It’s friendly competition here, everyone was happy to have enjoyed a nice meal and share their success during the past year.” Jim Rich provided the closing remarks, thanking everyone for attending and urging continued success with corn production as the world’s population increases, placing more pressure on farmers’ yields per acre of corn.

#13 Col. David Broadhead In 1781, Col. Daniel Broadhead had one mission in mind: to destroy all Native villages in the Muskingum valley. In April of that year, he arrived at Gosch-ach-gunk and captured many of the Natives, killing 16. The next morning, a surviving Native asked the Colonel for peace. He came to talk with the Colonel and was murdered from behind by one of the Colonel’s men. Afterward, Col. Broadhead destroyed the Native village and also the mission village, Lichtenau. This “Beacon Bicentennial Bit” was reprinted with permission and taken from the Coshocton County Sesquicentennial book compiled by the Coshocton County Historical Committee and printed by Shaw-Barton in 1961.
